Staying quit but missing the camaraderie...

Hi Mc, Funny, I just replied to a post and said almost the same thing. During my early quit there were several members that I bantered back and forth with. Shevie, who is still here (thank goodness), and also Catdaddy, Carpepax, and Kiwikeith who I never see anymore. Cyber groups are odd in that once someone is no longer on site, you have no idea what's happening with them. I�m lucky that some other good friends who helped me tremendously are still here often. 3galeh, Rusty, Duffis, Lolly, Ladybugg, Luna, NotPatchesAnyMore, Walkingeagle and Attaboygirl have always been here while I�ve been quit. Some like Major Dude, Penitent, and Joyfulspirit aren�t around as much now, but still take time to come in and lend a helping hand. You quit a few months after me. I�ve noticed that if you stick around, some of your buddies will leave and than return. Christmas was like old home week for me. So many of my mentors showed up � it was great. As far as your advice is concerned, it�s priceless. Do you remember the first few weeks? It really wasn�t so much WHAT someone said, just that they were there and took the time to respond. Your humor and encouragement have helped many on this site. Don�t worry about the content � your presence itself is very much appreciated. Not cravin', never cavin'.
